Upcycled Sunflowers
"Crochet these beautiful Upcycled Sunflowers to decorate your home, give as a gift or decorate for a party! There are so many options for use---garlands, candle holders, ornaments and photo frames, just to name a few. They would be perfect as candle holders on a fall holiday table! This pattern is easy with only 4 rounds. The only stitches you need to know are chain, slip stitch, single crochet, half double crochet and double crochet. You will crochet around a 1.75" plastic ring. (I got mine from gallon milk jugs) The sunflowers are then tied together using packaging twine."

These are just perfect for Fall decorating! The instructions are easy to follow and the designer provides photos for the critical points. I did have a couple of issues though. I dont know where she buys her milk, but those cap rings are huge. It would be nice to include tips on getting the rings off as I had a heck of a time prying them loose without breaking. Im thinking of using ponytail elastics instead.
